Using book for college course, like the fact the author is straight foward and does not use a bunch of big termonology I could not understand. Recommend this book to anyone learning about business ethics, in or out of college.
I brought the book for a class I am taking. I find the book to be an easy read and very informative. The information in the book is current and relevant to the business world today. I can use this book as a reference in my daily work environment to help govern my actions and decision making. It is an excellent book.
This is a great guide to managament. The authors present real-life senarios we all can relate to. The book is written well and very direct. I recommend it.
